So been browsing the bay in hope of getting my first trials.. narrowed my finds to these 3 but unsure which is best value for money or if im getting ripped off etc, so was hoping some info/opinions from yourselves would be of great use as im looking to purchse over the weekend...

valk Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 Well if you got the money then the third one is the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stunt man t Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 id probably go for the secound (t-comp) as its cheap and has a decent spec and if you dont get on with trials you havnt wasted a lot of money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 As above I'd go for the 2nd as a starter bike, just wants some riser bars and you're good to go. Also I'm highly intrigued by the 3rd one as it says the location is the village I live in and the only other bike I've ever seen here was a white zona zip ridden by a young lad a few years ago!

bing Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 Yeah bike number 2, and then you have some spare cash for new bars and stem, which will be a lot lighter and better geo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
williams Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 I would actually say that the 3:rd one is the best bet! But you and your wallet makes the decision:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AkuskaUK Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 I would also go with the 3rd... as it has been said before, its up to you in the end! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 Well the 2nd finished unsold at £80, I'd have snapped that up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jam Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 I would say buy the cheapest one, it will start you in the trials game. Put £300 aside and pay £80 of that budget on a bike. when you decide yeah I like trials you then have an account with £213 in it probably because you spent the other £7 on sweets and you can put this towards a new bike. Or you could think this trials lark was just a passing muse and shot the bike down the local car boot for £20 to some gadgey looking kid with a mullet who says to his companions "'ere mett lukk at this bangin' bmx a got fer a score. it got tractor tyres n all but top speeds a bit shan like cos ring on't pedals is only lyk small init. dem brakes are keen as fook n all" YOU WILL LOSE SIXTY POUNDS IF YOU TAKE THIS ROUTE but you'd still have £213 of dead money kicking around in the back bag wheeeyyyy!!! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
